A range of 5,15-diphenylporphyrins with symmetric and unsymmetric substitution patterns were subjected to osmium tetroxide-mediated dihydroxylations. The resulting chlorins and bacteriochlorins present an important group of compounds for studying structure-activity relationships of photodynamic sensitizers. The regioselectivity of the dihydroxylation of various 5,15-diphenylporphyrins with unsymmetrical substitution patterns was also examined. Both diphenylchlorin diol (DPC) and diphenylbacteriochlorin tetrol (DPBC) examples were converted into reactive isothiocyanates and conjugated with bovine serum albumin (BSA).

Iridium(III) complexes are potent candidates for photodynamic therapy (PDT), but some key drawbacks still hamper clinical translation, such as poor operability in the phototherapeutic window, high dark toxicity, and low...
